A collection of practical experiences and lessons on Payments for Environmental Services (PES)
This publication aims to facilitate the sharing of these practical experiences and lessons. It is organized around three key concepts within PES: environmental and economic feasibility in terms of being realistic and conditional; characteristics of service providers; and relationships to poverty. The opening synthesis paper provides some brief theoretical background on these key concepts, which are illustrated by lessons from field level practice in the six case study papers that follow.
